If the Rituximab doesn't work, will they consider moving onto/approving IVIG? I hope it works, but that if it doesn't, you can get IVIG, and that it works.

Hi JoannaP79
Rituximab has been used to treat people with anti-MAG associated neuropathy. There are some case reports which suggest that it can make it worse, not better (http://www.jns-journal.com/article/S...501-2/abstract). This is something that you could discuss with your prescribing doctor(s).
